It’s chicken change. Leave them. It’s not like the situation will grant us better distribution of electricity.

There are certain things I can never understand about Nigeria.

We don't have stable electricity yet we supply to countries that don't even pay us.

Who's idea was that, please?

I need a response from someone who understands the politricks of power (electricity).

The reason is this:

If we allow Niger or Benin to have their Dam; it will make our water level in our dam drain significantly and would even make us not to have the capacity to generate electricity for our-self either, and may also make the river Niger water to drop which would affect source of livelihood for those who relay on that water to survive.

So to be on a save side we would have to negotiate with them and even supply to them at a reduced rate to avoid the consequences of allowing them build dams.

Ethiopia, Egypt and Sudan at many points in time have had serious war like tensions because of the River Nile.

Niger, Benin, Chad who can't even pay for electricity are the same people that North is threatening to divert and sell their foodstuffs and cow to.
Before they raise the money those cows would have suffered kwashiorkor in those trailers like this picture below

These people are nomadic like northern Nigeria, apart from Benin republic. All their agricultural product will only spoil because they will not move the market as Southern Nigeria does.

You provide electricity to Niger and Benin republics even to the tune of 2.6billion and failed to give steady supply to this country. What have they been using the money for? The last time I checked the Northerners wants to die because of oil in the Niger Delta.

When we haven't been able to achieve 24hr electricity?
We've been giving neighbouring countries electricity? grin grin grin





Are you tired of buying fake branded electronics like Tvs, Microwaves, Washing machines, etc both online and offline?
Do you want to get value for money spent on these electronics?

Values like: Warranty, Swift Customer service experience, etc. Nothing to worry about any longer.

I procure original household appliances and electronics directly from companies like Hisense, LG, Nexus, Midea, Samsung, that meets your every need.

Delivery �: Lagos (Pay on Delivery) takes 24hrs. Outside Lagos: 3-5days.

River niger passes through niger.
If they dam it, kasala go burst for here.
Kainji dam will be useless
kindlyheart:
i think the reason we supply them power is for them not to dam the river that feeds our hydro dam.
BetaThings:

Check the map of West Africa and the no of countries that can dam River Niger before it gets to Nigeria
We need to have good relations with those countries


Dont you know Niger Republic is already building a dam? This deal has been a absolute failure for both sides so they're abandoning it. It's not like Nigeria going to do anything to stop them.

Very good, wise leaders know international diplomacy, is about national interest first. We need to make more money from our neighbours, for access to our market and other such comparative advantage we have.
